After the most part of mix becomes thinnish, a little it can begin to stir slowly, but just it is better to incline a pan here and there that future caramel didn't burn. Whenever possible avoid these actions - so you receive the cleanest and transparent toffee. As soon as your sugar becomes liquid and golden, switch off fire.

5. Add milk to a saucepan after poured out the kindled sugar from there and warm up a little on fire that it wasn't necessary to scrub away pan walls.
